I’ve been aware
of this for
a long time
and this that
I am aware
has framed me
like a painting
and within these
four pieces of
wood I live
love and write
someday maybe soon
or maybe later
I will be
hung on some
wall at the
end of the
hall and glanced
at as an
afterthought but never
will I ever
be displayed in
a gallery for
I’m not art
but simply oil
and canvas and
someone else’s imagination
